Erfworld is the story of Parson Gotti (aka Lord Hamster), a game master from our world who is summoned to Erfworld. There he is designated the Chief Warlord of Stanley the Tool. Parson has to defend the Tool's last remaining city against an army that outnumbers them by 10 (or more accurately 25) to 1.
Erfworld is an interesting place, full of gwiffons and dwagons and the like. The world itself is like a giant strategy game, where everyone has a stat associated with them (which the warlords and royalty can see). Parson needs to learn the system's rules quickly in order to exploit every thing he can to keep his side alive.
Erfworld: the Battle for Gobwin Knob is a quirky read, poking fun at gaming. I don't have a whole lot to say about it, but I did enjoy reading it.
